LTC4216 Datasheet Ultralow Voltage Hot Swap Controller

Manufacturer: Linear Technology (now Analog Devices)

General Description

The LTC®4216 is a positive low voltage Hot Swap™ controller that allows a board to be safely inserted and removed from a live backplane.

It controls load voltages ranging from 0V to 6V and isolates a severe fault with instantaneous analog current limiting.

An internal high side switch driver controls the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET.
